Updating this ILB entry from June 7th, EAGLECOUNTRY
99.3FM has a story today - a few quotes:
(Lawrenceburg, Ind.) - A
jailed blogger who targeted a Dearborn County judge with his internet writings
will have his appeal heard by the Indiana Supreme Court.
Dan Brewington’s story
has made national headlines and caught the attention of First Amendment advocates
across the country. Eagle 99.3 has been covering the story since Brewington was
indicted for Intimidation of a Judge and other charges in 2010. * * *
The justices’ decision
would likely come weeks or months later, which might have little impact on
Brewington’s stay behind bars. According to the Indiana Department of
Corrections, his earliest possible release from prison is September 15.
See this March 13th ILB post and its links to access all the
briefs in the appeal.

Ind. Courts - "Indiana Supreme Court Agrees to
Hear Oral Arguments in Brewington"
The ILB was
holding off on this, as nothing has yet been officially entered on the docket.
But meanwhile, Prof. Volokh at The Volokh Conspiracy has posted the word that
the Indiana Supreme Court "will hear oral argument — likely on Sept. 12 —
on the matter."
